OBJECTIVE To determine the kinematic, kinetic and EMG responses to perturbations of the foot by running in varus, neutral, and valgus-wedged shoes. DESIGN Within-subjects study comparing kinematics, kinetics and EMG while running in three different shoe conditions. BACKGROUND Excessive pronation has been cited as a key contributor to many types of running injuries. However, the roles of the...

We searched for the consequences of a maximal static foot inversion sustained until exhaustion on the post-exercise stationary upright standing and the proprioceptive control of the foot muscles. Twelve healthy subjects executed an unilateral maximal static foot inversion during which continuous power spectrum analyses of surface electromyograms of the tibialis anterior (TA), peroneus longus (P...

The EWS-ERG fusion protein is found in human sarcomas with the chromosomal translocation t(21;22)(q22;q12), where the translocation is considered to be an initiating event in sarcoma formation within uncommitted mesenchymal cells, probably long-lived progenitors capable of self renewal. The fusion protein may not therefore have an oncogenic capability beyond these progenitors. To assess whether...

OBJECTIVE The use of muscle balancing by the clinician to determine return to activity or discharge of a patient is not a well understood measure. Because of the lack of information on the poorly understood concept of eccentric/concentric (E/C) ratios at the ankle, the purpose was to determine the E/C ratios for the invertor and evertor muscles at various velocities in healthy and chronically u...

Access to uninterrupted power is not a luxury but basic need. Rural communities living far from the national grid, particularly those in southern region of Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, have limited access reliable supply. In order provide sustainable electricity, small-scale off-grid renewable energy systems are increasingly used for rural electrification. These commonly known as sta...

Purpose: Correct proprioceptive information and muscle balance of the ankle joint muscles are essential in preventing sports injuries. This study aims to investigate effect closed kinetic chain exercises on proprioception inversion/eversion strength imbalance track field athletes with medial tibial stress syndrome. Methods: was a randomized controlled trial study. In present study, 22 male hist...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate eccentric torque production capacity of the ankle, knee and hip muscle groups in patients with unilateral chronic ankle instability (CAI) as compared to healthy matched controls. METHODS In this case-control study, 40 participants (20 with CAI and 20 controls) were recruited based on convenient non-probability sampling. The average peak torque ...

The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the literature pertaining to the effect of foot posture, foot orthoses and footwear on lower limb muscle activity during walking and running. A database search of Medline, CINAHL, Embase and SPORTDiscus without language restrictions revealed 504 citations for title and abstract review. Three articles were translated to English and a final 46 art...
